Reports recently circulated that audiences were left in tears after attending early screenings of Captain Marvel and witnessing the movie's tribute to the late Stan Lee, and as long as you're okay with being spoiled, you'll find all the details on the sequence in question below.

So, the tribute is actually the Marvel Studios logo graphic that plays before the movie starts, but instead of the usual glimpses of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, we see a collage of every cameo appearance Lee has made in The MCU. Then, the screen fades to black with the words "Thank You Stan".

It's a fitting tribute to the legendary Marvel Comics creator, whose legacy has inspired and will continue to inspire so many. There were no tears at my screening, but the crowd did erupt into cheers and applause.

As you may know, Lee also makes a posthumous cameo in the movie itself, but we'll hold off on sharing details on that until tomorrow!

Are any of you guys seeing Captain Marvel tonight at midnight screenings, or are you waiting until tomorrow? Let us know in the comments.
